It seems, Indian Censor have asked to blur all the scene of Actors holding a glass with alcohol in movies FordVsFerrari. So it looks like Christian bale is holding something blurry in his hand and often bringing it to his mouth. It can be a cat, hamster or a Glass. But its ok not to blur Smoking?

I don't know if this has any effect on the public, but that's another debate.
However, I do like the fact that things like alcohol or tobacco doesn't get free advertisement and rather get blurred. Down here in Australia, cigarettes come in packaging with graphic images of deteriorated (possibly due to smoking) human organs that looks extremely disgusting. Some examples include tar-filled cancerous lungs, cancerous stomach (the innards), cancerous eye sockets, cancerous liver, etc. that look nauseating. Everything is expensive in Australia, but I'm told it's super expensive to to purchase cigarettes here even by Australian standards.
The other day I was in the queue with my groceries and a dude appeared to be full of shame, asking the cashier to get him a cigarette that comes with the picture of a cancerous, bleeding eye. Mind you, some of these things could only be differentiated by these gruesome photos, and they don't have cool names like "menthol magic" or nonsense like that.
In fact, I'd suggest that movies that depict smoking, drinking, etc. should be heavily taxed, and the monies be used to fund something useful.

That's the standard policy followed all over the world, Its same in Germany and India too.

I don't think it's the case all over the world. Perhaps in most developed countries.

Nah, it should all be blurred.

super wrote: not to blur Smoking? This also should have been blurred. I welcome the blurring of alcohol however smoking is as sinister as alcohol, basically it shouldn't be displayed as a cool thing for the young audience. Don't know why they have such standards.

Smoking, drinking, drugs could ruin self, hence there should be every possible effort to stop youngsters from indulging into these. I feel due to their adolescence they are more prone to get into this.
I have a bigger problem with narratives where the movies glorify eve teasers and does crazy stuff to win the heart of a girl.
Sometimes the narrative will be subtle (just like how Bahuballi paints sh*t on his lady love - but hey, how its OK to touch another person without their concern and say it as love or creativity) and many times it is vulgarly open (most of the movies of Dhanush, ...).
I am more worried with the kind of message these scenes depict. A more matured person can take it as cinema (unreal) and move on, but adolescents won't.
Its good if cinema people shows more sensitivity in these rather than government censoring - they too have a responsibility, right!
But Nahhh...., creativity is more important here

What would happen if you downgrade the graphics from GTA Vice City? It becomes a bollywood movie

Drive.
Btw, I highly doubt many people from GIT would binge on Netflix. So that would limit the options for guesswork.

In other news,
A 200 Page dossier prepared by 11 JNU teachers in 2016, described the university as a "Den of organized sex racket" & claimed that sex workers inside JNU messes are a common thing. In 2011 few students caught recording blue film in hostel room with CDs.
JNU is a den of organised sex racket, says dossier prepared by university teachers - India News[^]
No wonder why they want rooms at a dirt price!
Recently they Vandalized the statue of Swami Vivekanand before the inauguration.
Maybe the Taxpayer should have an option not to pay Tax for such filth and bigotry place.

Take this report with a pinch of salt since it is politically motivated, Its going to be like Kanahiya kumar case of "anti-nationalism".
Quote: e report has been prepared by a group of 11 teachers, who are believed to be close to the Bharatiya Janata Party and Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad, the students' wing of the RSS.

No surprise for this counter-argument where the JNU is den of leftist besides the report was based on several incidents and where on the earth leftist would believe on the facts they would deny it with such angles(RSS and bla...).
The report is prepared by 11 Teachers. And it's not based on the singular incident where it was found the campus is fill of filth(sex). There are numerous videos and news where it was found students/campus are involved in such activities. Kanahiya Kumar case, it can't be denied that there are people on the campus who organized such "Anti National" event in addition to commemorating Afzal Guru the terrorist.

On 12th November 1969, the Indian National Congress party split into two factions - one lead by Nijalingappa (called Congress O), and the other lead by Indira Gandhi (called Congress I). What we see today is this faction Congress I. The other faction gradually became the Janata Party, which won the 1977 elections.

There are 800+ universities in India, only JNU has Riots every few months for lunatic reasons.
1. Sometimes its for Attendance rules.
2. Chargesheet on Bharat Tere Tukde Tukde
3. Now attack & tearing Clothes of Teachers
The freeloaders of JNU want Rs. 10 a month room for life in Delhi. The riot is only for the hike of Rs. 300.
Clearly there is something rotten in state of JNU.

Maybe they are thinking that they are still living in the age of Nehru. Already 55 years since he is gone.

If you watched the news it looks like a war between Tax-Payer(Police Force) vs Freeloaders.
A railway station entry is costlier than their room rent. Now I understand, they don't pass the exam purposefully so as to enjoy a decent life at the expense of Tax Payers. They take 10 years to complete 3 years of education.
JNU like institutes is completely useless for the Nation as its education has only made the hooligans.

Quote: 10 a month room for life in Delhi. Seems they rolled back the fees from 600/- to 200/- (before increase it is 20/-) for single occupancy and for double occupancy they rolled back from 300/- to 100/- (before increase it is 10/-)
This is unbelievable that all these days they paid so low. Instead they could give student loans for very less interest. Without strings attached I don't think you can groom them into professionals

I can't believe management falls back against such hooliganism. I have seen several freshers living so humble when they were studying they were used to pay rent to their "relatives" for their self-esteem.
Definitely it's not the education they are getting in JNU with such a sycophant environment.
I just found the current hostel charges per month(In Rupees)
Hostel Admission Fee - 5
Single seater room Rent - 20
Double seater room Rent - 10
Hostel Security Fee(Refundable) - 50
Water & Electricity Utility Charges - NIL
Service Charge - NIL
Mess Security Deposite(Refundable) - 750
Mess Advance(Adustable) - 750
NewsPaper Annual charge. - 50 Rs.
So all these years they were enjoying all the facilities for at a price of a peanut however 300 Rs. a month charge is not acceptable for them in the Posh area of Delhi.
If I remember correctly then I used to pay 3000 Rs. of one-semester* charge for Hostel way back 12 years before and that location/college was 100 KM away from one of the Metro City!
*500 per month.

A room for 10/- is not subsidy. Its equivalent to free.
I saw people/students talking to news channels. And they are wearing wild-craft bags and other nice clothing. Its hypocrisy. And please keep in mind that it's the taxpayers money which is going into these subsidies and it is better to keep the subsidies to minimum
Quote: What do you mean by it As I said, if they get loans at least they will have the burden to repay them back. And the period of stay also needs to be limited. If the course is for 3 years, there is no point in allowing a student for more than 5 years (under normal circumstances).
With no strings attached we are making them duds and useless and doing more harm to them.
IITs and IIMs have much more strict rules and higher fees. So I am thinking why not JNU
